The U.S. Census Bureau designates our City of the Lakes as having the second highest population of bicycle commuters (Portland, Oregon has the most). We are lucky enough to have dedicated bicycle lanes along 40 miles of our streets, and 82 miles of off-street bicycle trails.

Metro Transit

Varsity Bike and Transit is working with Metro Transit to provide a Greener way to get you around town. Using the bike racks on the front of MTC busses serving select routes can help you reach the portion of your destination on a route that isn’t bike friendly.

Read about how to use them here, look for them on your bus route, or stop into Varsity Bike and Transit to try one out.
